Introducing Pride Recovery LA<br />
The exclusively <strong>LGBTQ</strong> treatment center in California<br />
• <strong>LGBTQ</strong> people are nearly 30% more likely than members of<br />
the general population to suffer from addiction.<br />
• The <strong>LGBTQ</strong> population are 60% more likely to relapse following<br />
addiction treatment in traditional recovery programs.<br />
• The same trauma that the <strong>LGBTQ</strong> commity faces in everyday life – the trauma<br />
that lurks beneath the addiction – is replicated in traditional treatment<br />
because traditional treatment is a microcosm of the world at large.<br />
• <strong>LGBTQ</strong>-specific treatment transforms the dangerous environment clients<br />
face every day and gives them the safety to work through their shame<br />
and create connections and community.<br />
That’s why we need <strong>LGBTQ</strong>-specific treatment, not only for drug/alcohol addiction,<br />
but for all substance and behavior addictions. At Pride Recovery LA, we’re here to<br />
address shame and build pride. Pride in Self. Pride in Sobriety. Pride in Community.<br />
